Hello,

I have a new 75 gallon tank (currently fishless cycling) that I plan to make mixed reef. I have the AL 18DX Hybrid (4 ft) with two Kessil A360X's. I am looking for recommendations on the best four ATI bulb combination to use (Actinic, Blue Plus, Coral+, etc...) for a mixed reef tank.

Thank you.

My recommendation combination is 2 tru actinic and 2 blueplus. This is blue but not overly blue for me. Some would prefer more white but I like this combo.

Blue plus or blue plus and actinic bulbs. That way you can run the Kessils with more white for better shimmer.

Thanks. I have blue+ and actinics on the way. Will do just that...use Kessils for more coral coloration and shimmer.
